Today's business users expect 24/7 access to information however, they do not
want to waste time navigating multiple applications or learning a new tool.
By providing integrations to common applications such as Microsoft Outlook,
Microsoft Windows Explorer and Microsoft SharePoint, the My Documentum family
extends sophisticated ECM capabilities to every desktop enabling IT
organizations to advance knowledge worker adoption and further increase the
return on investments of their Documentum solution.
EMC My Documentum Family
-- EMC My Documentum for Outlook allows users to fully leverage Outlook's
native user interface features, menus and toolbars to file, store,
find
and manage critical e-mails and attachments in the Documentum
repository. The newest release of My Documentum for Outlook provides:
-- Deeper integration with Outlook menus, toolbars and search and
folder structures to reduce the user's learning curve. Users can
simply drag and drop e-mails and attachments into repository
folders
and then apply properties, permissions, versions and locations
directly from the Outlook interface.
-- Usability improvements such as support for Outlook rules to
automatically import content and a one-step send-and-save
operation.
-- Offline access to the repository and automatic synchronization of
changes once reconnected to the repository.
-- EMC My Documentum for SharePoint provides users with seamless, direct
access to content that are being managed within a Documentum
repository
through the SharePoint user interface. Customers can easily configure
their SharePoint experience to expose Documentum-specific
functionality
for virtual documents, lifecycles and renditions as well as leverage
advanced search capabilities for Documentum libraries.
-- EMC My Documentum for Desktop allows users to access, save, share and
secure content in the Documentum repository through Windows Explorer,
Apple Macintosh Finder and Microsoft Office programs. The newest
release of My Documentum for Desktop provides increased performance
and
scalability.
EMC My Documentum Offline is a new lightweight client that allows mobile
workers access to the latest versions of content they use most often while
disconnected from the Documentum repository. Content may be edited, added,
deleted and subscribed while offline and will automatically synchronize upon
reconnecting to the repository. My Documentum Offline is fully integrated
with Microsoft Windows.
EMC Executive Quote
"The EMC My Documentum family blends the convenience and familiarity of
desktop applications with the power of Documentum ECM. Business users can
work in ways that best suit their needs -- whether online or offline -- with
no training required. Now everyone in the company can reap the benefits of
additional security and control that Documentum ECM delivers."
- Whitney Tidmarsh, Chief Marketing Officer, Content Management and Archiving
Division, EMC
Supporting Quotes
"One of the reasons why many enterprise content management initiatives fail is
that ECM functionality is not well integrated into the business applications
that knowledge workers use every day. With the EMC My Documentum family,
users get transparent access to content services provided by Documentum. As
more workers secure, store and manage content within Documentum, the IT
organization can better address its requirements for archiving, retention,
governance and compliance."
- Melissa Webster, Program Vice President, Content and Media Digital
Technologies, IDC
"The latest release of My Documentum for Outlook provides a highly-integrated
user interface with Microsoft Outlook. Within three weeks, the FDA was able
to roll out the solution to half of our users who found it easy to use because
they are working through the same Outlook program they're familiar with."
- Timothy Moy, Analyst, Food and Drug Administration
